goddamnit. i been working on a similar map since the jk2 tools came out. well, at least his doesn't suck(mine does).

You guys should still do your maps. For example, there are two canyon oasis out and two naboo reactors. Two of the same map can coexist. I like this guys map, but others do not. Everyone has a different opinion about things. His map may not be to other's liking, rather, they may prefer yours over his. You might as well keep going if you already started. I'm sure your maps will be good. :)

Well that one on that site is alright looking, but they dont even have the main level inside the large ship thing were the people were inside. It would be a nice little extra area.

Danny, I emailed you the link to my prefab. :)

And, I am going to continue work on my map. I think it's coming a long nicely. I'm especially proud of my Skiff.

I was thinking of doing the interior of the barge, but I decided not to, because I'm not really sure what it looks like. If you guys want the interior, and can supply me w/ some pics of it, I might include it. ;)

Hey Cmdr. Antilles you should make two versions of the map one of what it looked like before Jabba died and one after Luke and them left.

edit: spelling

I was thinking about making it so that you can shoot the deck gun into the barge, and it would catch on fire. Heheheh....

Like I said, though. I need pictures of the interior.

I just wanted to comment on the skybox. Several of the skybox shaders included in the game seem to have insanely tiny floor textures. I dont know if they did this because of indoor gameplay or the extreamly high walls or whateva. But i think if ppl are going to use these skybox's they should have cliffs, walls, thick forest, and/or do not enter areas so when you look off the edge it doesnt look so strange. By strange i mean it kinda looks like your 30 stories up or something ... or walkin in the clouds. Anywho.. just thinkin aloud as this has bothered my on alot of the maps I have been tryin to make in my learning process.

I'm trying to bound off my map w/ dunes and rock... I want it to look natural.

Those blueprints are nice. Does anyone have prints for Jabba's lair???

Ok this is Special for his barge http://www.theforce.net/swtc/Pix/vidi7/jpixx.jpg

Photomosaic reconstruction of a lost artistic treasure of Tatooine.
This picture decorated one of the walls of the luxury sail barge of Jabba the Hutt. It was about one-and-a-half metres long and perhaps four-fifths of a metre high. It appears to be a relief cut in tan/ochre sandstone, which according to SWCCG lore, was from the adoptive Hutt homeworld of Nal Hutta. The piece, entitled Ne Ganna Dateel Jabba is said to have been designed by a Huttese artist named Dreyba.

The image depicts Jabba resting contentedly, surrounded by what probably were some of his favorite possessions. In his right hand he holds a large thin-necked jug which presumably held a drink of the hutt's fancy. In his left hand Jabba is cradling the head of one of his reclining humanoid pets. Another pet crouches attentively near his right hand, leaning against his mighty belly. Other pets are near Jabba's tail, or standing behind him. Two are holding fans.

The whole leisurely company is under what appears to be a tent or canopy, and it seems as if there are cushions on the ground.

The picture was tragically destroyed along with the whole sail barge and its passengers, after a joyride to the Pit of Carkoon went horribly wrong. The prisoners intended as live food for the local sarlaac managed to escape. They slew the guards, courtiers and Jabba; and then blasted the barge with its own defensive laser cannon.
